Spirulina is rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, making it a popular choice for nutritional supplements among athletes and health enthusiasts. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties are being researched for potential pharmaceutical applications, including treatments for arthritis and high cholesterol. In the cosmetics industry, spirulina is valued for its skin-enhancing benefits, commonly used to rejuvenate and detoxify the skin. Additionally, spirulina is used in animal feed to improve the health and growth of livestock, particularly in aquaculture. The Helios H photobioreactor provides the optimal conditions for cultivating spirulina, including a slightly alkaline environment, consistent temperatures between 30°C and 35°C, and continuous, even lighting. Precise nutrient management and gentle mixing ensure robust photosynthetic activity and prevent cell settling, resulting in high-quality spirulina. Our closed system reduces contamination risk and allows for scalable production, making it suitable for both small and large producers. Moreover, PBRs use water and nutrients efficiently, reducing environmental impact. Our PBRs have demonstrated the ability to produce superior quality spirulina at reduced production costs. The Helios H has been active for 1300 days at AlgaeHUB, producing spirulina consistently. Learn more about spirulina in our research paper, "Unstoppable Spirulina." The successful three-year uninterrupted cultivation of spirulina in Lgem's AlgaeHUB® highlights minimal downtime, automation for labor efficiency, and the reliability of the Lgem production system.
